On January 1, 2010, we embarked on a 1,500-mile walk from our home in Miami, FL, to Washington, D.C to share our stories, so that everyday Americans understand what it's like for the millions of young immigrants like us, unable to fully participate in society.
It's time that our country come together to fix a failed system that keeps millions in the shadows, with no pathway to a better life.
We demand that President Obama institute an executive action that will stop detentions and deportations of students for a period of two years, and halt removal proceedings for individuals with immediate family members who are U.S. citizens.
We support the DREAM Act, an end to the separation of families, workers' rights, and a pathway to citizenship.
On April 10th, inspired by our walk, five immigrant students left New York City to start their own 250-mile Trail of Dreams and to demand the passage of the DREAM Act.
